I'm currently rebuilding this from the ground up mostly to replace my handmade animations with CSS transitions. Both the old and new were built with no JS frameworks or libraries and the one you're looking at does well in IE6, to give you an idea of how long ago it was refreshed.

There are a couple of very strange usability problems with the overlay, it seems to fade out while dragging the edges and clicking on the things inside the iframe leave you floating in a wikipedia page that you can't go back to the original content from easily. Also dragging the overlay in circle maximises it which was a surprise!

Good luck redoing this in CSS!

Thanks for making this! It was widely recommended in my chemistry class last year, and the orbitals table especially came in handy.
